  1. Et Exspecto Resurrectionem Mortuorum is the title of a piece of orchestral music (1964) by the Roman Catholic French composer Olivier Messiaen. The Latin comes from the final sentence of the Credo of the Mass: "Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum, et vitam ventúri sæculi" - ("And I await the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.")
  2. I was heavily influenced by the music of Messiaen when I used to write music for a living in the 1990s. (As it happens, I'm not a Roman Catholic.)
